Come join us for a special Halloween party featuring: Hartley’s Encore and Bearly Dead with special guests Sam Kininger (Lettuce / Soulive) and Hayley Jane, who will each be sitting in throughout the evening!  The night will feature a set by each band followed by a special 3rd Halloween set featuring Sam Kininger, Hayley Jane, members of both bands and other special guests.

Hartley’s Encore is a funk/soul band from Albany, NY. Their mission: making music that’s equal parts soundtrack to your Saturday night and bacon for your Sunday brunch. Frequently FUNKY—and always soulful—H.E. is the house band at your dance party for the apocalypse. Their sound: (1) smart melodies & hooks; (2) funk/R&B grooves; (3) earworm horn lines; (4) electrifying solos. Think: Bill Withers + The Meters + Jamiroquai + Tower of Power + Lettuce.

They have shared the stage with established icons, and stars of today’s scene, such as Los Lobos, Eric Krasno (Soulive/Lettuce), (Lettuce/Scofield/Break Science/AWB), Erick “Jesus” Coomes (Lettuce/Dr. Dre/Snoop Dogg/Talib Kweli) and the Nth Power, as well as future stars, and artists on the rise, like Brandon “TAZ” Niederauer, and Kat Wright.

Hartley’s Encore is proud to share “All to You’” with the world on 7/19/19. It is their third single release of 2019, coming on the heels of “Feels So Good,” and “Burnin’,” which have steadily racked up streams/plays, and continue to earn the band a growing fan-base (in new markets) since they dropped on 3/1/19, and 4/19/19 (respectively). The band was (again) blessed to have iconic drummer/producer Alan Evans (of Soulive) record and mix the single at his Iron Wax Recording Studios in Erving, MA. Evans previously worked with the band on Feels So Good and Burnin’, as well as the Hartley’s Encore EP (released 4/20/18).

Hartley’s Encore was selected as a “[Band] You Should Know,” by NYSMusic.com in its 2017 year-in-review, and both their recorded material and high-energy live shows have received positive reviews. Stay tuned for more fresh material to be released in Fall of 2019/Winter 2020, and make sure to catch them live in the near future at a show near you!
